概要

 Hey folks, grab your Simms waders and a stiff double latte, cause 2026s got some buzzworthy fly fishing shakes-ups hittin the US rivers thatll have you riggin up pronto. First off, Colorados Lower Blue River near Kremmling is in a real tussle per that fresh December 2025 Colorado Parks and Wildlife survey by aquatic biologist Jon Ewert. CPW says pellet-fed trout from spots like Blue Valley Ranch are overcrowdin the joint, spreadin gill lice, and tankin populationsbrowns and rainbows alike. Landowners wanna slap a 10-year pilot permit on floaters to fix it, but locals like Friends of the Lower Blue are pushin back, blamin reservoir flows instead. Angler mortality? CPW calls it minor under catch-and-release rules. Keep an eye on this one, could change how we drift that tailwater gold.

Shiftin west, Wyomins Game and Fish is droppin a 70-year October closure on Jackson Lake startin next year, openin up lake trout spawnin grounds for fall action. Plus, Snake River below the dam from 150 feet out to the gauging station? Trout limit jumps to six daily, no length caps on them chunky browns while cutts stay at three with one over 12. Sight-fishin hogs just got easier, bait chuckers too, but us fly slingersll own those riffles.

Oregons ODFW just locked in 2026-27 regs with a nine-buck Ocean Endorsement for marine speciesno salmon or steelhead hassles tho. Funds nearshore surveys for better striper data, simplifies kokanee to 10 a day year-round, and greens spearfishin on bass and walleye to ease pressure on natives. Cleaner swings for steelhead swings ahead.

And heads up on the snow drought hammerin the West, per Midcurrents take on The Conversation reportmuch of Utah, Colorado, PNW freestones are low on snowpack. Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks could slap hoot owl restrictions early if temps hit 73 degrees three days runnin77s lethal for trout. La Nina patterns mean late snow dumps, but summer rivers might cook without melt to cool em. Pack barbless hooks and watch those water temps, crew.

Theres more like Arkansas Game and Fish Commissions new two-trout limits with 14-inch releases on Beaver and Greers Ferry tailwaters come Feb 1, post-hatchery die-offs. Overall, Flylabs callin 2026 an up year for fishin conscience, Gen Z tyin bugs, and wins like the MAPWaters Act passin Senate for easier public water access via apps.
